Ken Griffey Jr. entered Saturday's day-night doubleheader against the Mets needing three homers to become the sixth member of the 600-home run club. Willie Randolph believes we'd be talking about even more significant dinger milestones had Griffey's career not been slowed by injuries. [link]

Bostick heading north?
Published 5/11/2008 by noreply@blogger.com (Andrew Vazzano) at The 'Ropolitans :: New York Mets Baseball Blog
Anthony McCarron hints at a possible move the Mets might be making in the coming days due to Saturday's doubleheader. From McCarron: Lefty Adam Bostick was yanked from his start last night at Triple-A New Orleans after three scoreless innings, meaning he possibly could be called up to start Wednesday when the Mets may need a fill-in starter as a result of yesterday's doubleheader.

Every time the Mets lose a game, I hear the same things: "It's Willies fault." "Fire Willie!" "Randolph stinks!" "Where's Frank Robinson?" Yes, that last one is true. I still like Willie Randolph . It's not entirely his fault the players are inconsistent. It's not his fault his pitchers get into the 120's with their pitch count in the 5th inning.
